Another great day at Microfluidic Horizons 2026. This time with our own contributions! Rita was amazing but I clearly have no clue what’s going on #MH26

Just rounded up the pre-conference for Microfluidic Horizons 2026. It’s looking like an exciting week ahead! #MH26

Our Growth Laws Theory Cookbook is now available @prxlife.bsky.social ! Step-by-step recipes for coarse-grained cellular growth modeling. Ready to cook? 🧑‍🍳 🧑‍💻 journals.aps.org/prxlife/abst... @micalilab.bsky.social @spcggroup.bsky.social

Our Hands On Growth Laws Theory Cookbook is out today! journals.aps.org/prxlife/abst... It covers cell growth models through step-by-step recipes, bridging theory and practical applications, from basic to complex settings. Happy cooking! With @micalilab.bsky.social and @lciandrini.bsky.social

It’s so great to be back among ecologists at #BES2025! I will be presenting a poster of my recent work at @micalilab.bsky.social on bacterial cross-feeding interactions

The first day of our scientific retreat is coming to an end. 4 more days of microbial ecology and physiology with @spcggroup.bsky.social and Luca Ciandrini (Multiscale Molecular Modelling, CBS)

Our "Growth Laws Theory Cookbook" preprint is out! 👨‍🍳👩🏼‍🍳🧑‍🍳 arxiv.org/abs/2507.19194 *Learn our hands-on recipes and create your own!* With Ciandrini and Micali labs @micalilab.bsky.social Thanks to Rossana Droghetti for coordinating the heavy lift.

It was so much fun talking to people about bacterial cross-feeding! #FEMS2025

What a great opening day! #FEMS2025

If you think microfluidics and bacterial cross-feeding are cool, I will have a talk and a poster at #FEMS2025 next week. The rest of @micalilab.bsky.social will be there too!

Hi all! We are the Group of Microbial Ecology, at IRCCS Humanitas in Milan, Italy. To understand how microbial cells grow and interact in communities, we develop theoretical models and test them with microfluidics. We are always on the lookout for multidisciplinary people (MSc, PhD, Postdoc)!
